UE5 Quake‑Like Game (ShooterRooms)

A small Unreal Engine 5 Quake‑like FPS prototype / learning project.
Main focus: building practical UE5 skills (lighting, multiplayer, Niagara VFX, animations, UI) in one playable sandbox.

---

What I practiced / implemented

• Lighting
  • Scene lighting setup (directional/sky/post process), mood tuning, and readability work
• Multiplayer
  • Basic client/server flow, replication-aware gameplay patterns (prototype level)
• Niagara (VFX)
  • Weapon / impact / gameplay VFX experiments using Niagara systems
• Animations
  • Character animation setup (AnimBP / BlendSpaces / state machine style workflows)
• UI
  • HUD / menus with UMG, basic in-game UI wiring

This repository is primarily for learning and experimentation, so parts may be rough or incomplete.

   git clone https://github.com/CyberYagir/UE5QuakeLikeGame.git

2. Open ShooterRooms.uproject
3. If prompted, click Generate Visual Studio project files
4. Build the project (from Visual Studio or via Unreal Editor prompt)
5. Press Play in the editor
